    I assumed this is a concept engine for some type of competition go-kart, not a vehicle driven on any road. The SAE organizations have minimal amounts of electronics: starter, alternator, battery. Lincoln, you never specified the application for the motor. What is it for?

    No. No I didn't.

The majority of vehicles have a stereo (Hell my Polaris Ranger has a stereo). Just food for thought. No need to get your panties in a bunch.
    No bunching, just saying. Your assumptions are safe ones, but I was worried about things getting off on a tangent and eventually degrading into a thread-jacking. Hence I wanted to stay on point.

    That's why I said theoretical, so people's minds would not be clouded by application data. Yes, a competition cart is the closest practical application to what I was thinking.
